Whew!

Absence makes the heart grow fonder, or so they say. I feel like my blog has taken the back seat along with many other aspects of my daily life so that I could obsessively work on this painting. I have to laugh in retrospect because it looks simple enough but I swear there are at least 4 paintings under this one that I agonized over, ruined and painted white to start again. It was a great learning experience to say the least. The motivation for all this was based on the word "choice" and looking at many artists I admire for this online course I'm doing.Well one good thing about being away from the blog world for a bit is now I get to catch up on some of my favorite reading, THIS blog of artist Annamaria Potamiti is really worth a look. Off to kick my feet up for a bit :)

About Me

In my work I am chasing a moment of honesty- of wonder, of texture and form, light and color.
I try to create a sense of longing for that which is larger and yet remain intimate in the simplicity of my images.
I have always enjoyed the universal contained within the everyday small things in life.
